Brigit Anna McNeill is a writer, naturalist, herbalist, and wilderness guide whose work explores the meeting place of trauma, ecology, and the wild heart. Her essays and teachings weave science, story, and soul, with plants and wild places at their centre. She is the author of Bloom & Thrive: Essential Healing Herbs and Flowers and The Wild Within. She also writes the newsletter Into the Woods on Substack, shares her work with nearly 60,000 followers on Instagram @brigitannamcneill, and has contributed to Resurgence & Ecologist, The Green Parent, and the BBC’s Countryfile.
